Marijuana found in fake UPS truck

Arizona Department of Public Safety Detectives seized almost $1.2 million worth of marijuana from a cloned United Parcel Service (UPS) truck on November 14. The suspects had painted the truck a shade of brown similar to the color of authentic UPS trucks and affixed reflective yellow decals to the truck.

When a DPS officer tried to stop the truck, the driver fled on foot and a search of the truck turned up bundles of marijuana weighing 2,118 pounds. The truck also had a homemade Arizona license plate with the same number that is assigned to an authentic UPS truck that services the Tucson area.
